Narrating his ordeal, the siblings, Mr. Imasuen Edosa Osa who was at the  secretariat of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), Edo State council to solicit for help said that recently, his brother’s life threatening encounter occurred about 7:23am on the 9th day of September, 2024, when some unknown armed thugs fully masked came to his house at No. 14, Omoma Street, off Oko Central, Benin City, Edo State, Nigeria in search of my brother – Imasuen Efosa.

He said on the said day, while trying to open the gate to drive his kids to school, some unknown armed men came to his house, they pushed him into the compound and forcefully made him and his wife – Marian to kneel down and face the wall.

“They asked me of the whereabouts of my brother (Efosa) whom they thought was around and I pleaded with them that he was not around but they did not believe me.

“They forced their way into my house while I was looking for the keys, they scattered and searched the entire house looking for my brother. While my wife and I pleaded to have mercy upon my brother, they repeated continuously as they search through my house that Efosa must die, that they were paid to eliminate him.

“They damaged some of my properties in the process and left in anger and threatened that I should tell my brother – Efosa to continue to hide and that their cartel are everywhere and the search for him is all over the country that he must go down.”

Going further, Edosa disclosed that the threats to his brother’s life has been a reoccurring decimal. He said one of the incidence happened on the 19th of September 2023 when some armed men came to his house to look for his brother (Efosa) over a matter in faraway America.

“The armed men also came to look for Efosa sometimes in May, 2024 and in June, 2024 respectively.

“All the search and threats to Efosa’s life have been reported to the police and I also commissioned my lawyer who wrote a petition in respect of the matter but the armed men are unknown and the police have not been able to get hold of them, this made it risky for my brother to return to Nigeria where threats to his life is still ongoing and his life is in grave danger,” he added.

When contacted, the Edo State Police Command spokesperson, SP Moses Yamu confirmed the petition and said that investigation into the alleged threat to life is ongoing.
